The Kitchen Girls of Melbourne Banded
Together In 3 Union.
There exists in Melbourne Domes-
tic Servants Union. 1t has issued a
circular in which It says:
The members of this society wish it
to be thoroughly understood that they
have not banded together for the pur.
pose of taking any arbitrary steps
against their employers, such as an agi-
that description, as will be seen from
the objects under which the union has
been formed-name}y:
l. To unite together for mutual pro-
lection.
2. To give mutual support to its
members.
8. To endeavor to obtain mitiga-
ton of the difficulties under which we
ct present labor.
f. To establish a bureau for conven.
sence and economy in obtaining en-
ployment-
5. To encourage and protect the legit-
innate interests of aforesaid union, to

sion, and to endeavor to settle any dis

The recent contests in the legisla-
ture show that something is greatly
lacking in the election laws Of the
state, and that the general business con-
aected with election is done in very
loose manner. During this session
two members have been unseated;
one. Mr.. Akin. of Dakota county, by
change in the count Of one vote
against him. One republican member
OF the legislature believes that the
republican majority in the senate
made . grave mistake in unseatIng
NJ. Akin and seating Mr.. Truax.
The result and proceedings in the
other contest is enough to create a
doubt in any mind as to the reliabilli-
~ Of any count. Mr.. Snider, repub-
lean candidate, contested the seat Of
Mr.. Gross, who, by the official returns
WAS elected, Mr.. Merrill, another
democratic candidate, refusing to
Join with Snider in the contest. \
recount upon application OF Mr..
knider resulted in electing Mr.. Mer-
Yill. who then petitioned for his seat.
Upon recount by the committee OH
elections. to whom the case was re-
ferred, Merrill was counted out and
Snider counted in.
